FIGHTING THE BLACK DEATH IN MANCHURIA 




DR. RICHARD P. STRONG 

HE DISCOVERED THE CAUSE OF THE PNEUMONIC PLAGUE 

Director of the new school of Tropica] Medicine at Harvard, went to Manchuria and per- 
formed post-mortems on the Chinese victims of the plague, and then followed the traces 
of the plague back to its source, until he found that it came from a diseased specimen 
of a rat, called the Tarbagan. a fur-bearing animal known to us as the marmot. 




The plague started in mid-winter, and spread with, 
great rapidity along the railroad, as the hunters, labor- 
ers, etc., were returning to their homes for the Chinese 
New Year, which occurs the latter part of Januaiy, and 
traffic was very heavy at this time. 





Doctors attending a patient in a 
plague hospital. Not one recovery 
from pneumonic plague has ever 
been recorded. 



A Tarbagan or marmot, whose fur, prop- 
erly treated, makes an excellent imitation 
of sable and marten. 





This animal is the carrier of the pneumonic 
plague. 



Bodies of the dead being carried out by bearers, who 
went through the streets crying as in the Great Plague 
of London, " Bring out your dead."

TINY BROADWICK 



A miss of eighteen who makes a living 
" demonstrating " a patent aerial lifeboat. An 
aeroplane, sailing faster than the speediest of 
ocean liners, takes her up as a passenger to an 
altitude of 1,000 feet or more. Then she cuts 
the " lifeboat " from its davits and floats home 
under an inverted bowl of red, white, and blue 
silk. 



Upon the " exact spot where man first proved his 
supremacy over the air " when Wilbur Wright circled in 
an aeroplane from the field near Daj'ton, Ohio, now 
known as " Wilbur Memorial Park," this statue of a 
man bird is to stand. Its base is to be a natural rough 
bowlder of American granite. 

The figure later is to be given winged heels, like 
Mercury, and a suit of plumage. It was unveiled, with 
ceremonies, attended by men distinguished in a variety 
of callings. Gutzon Borglum is the sculptor. The 
photograph was taken in his studio in Stamford, Conn.

MONTE CARLO RIDES IN BIRD-BOAT TAXICABS 

The population of Monte Carlo, where watching pointers spin 
around a dial is the favorite amusement, has found a new 
variation on the old theme. The latest dial to watch is on a 
" taxihydroplane." The photograph at the left shows the taxi 
on a trial trip. Timing the moment to take this snapshot was 
as delicate a problem as a photographer ever studied, for the 
air craft and the water craft were not racing. They were 
passing in opposite directions, the hydroaeroplane at a speed of 

; from 35 to 55 miles an hour and the 

] boat as fast as the average passenger 
• train. The bird-boat passenger service 
is conducted in as businesslike a man-

ADOLPHE PEGOTJD, 
A French aviator only twenty-four 
years old, has recently performed the 
feat of propelling a Bleriot monoplane 
upside down. The pictures, taken at 
Juvisy, France, show the man and 
his performance. lie described, the 
spectators said, a huge letter S in the 
air, flying for some 400 yards head 
downward, the landing wheels of the 
monoplane turned skyward. His ma- 
chine was ea.uipped with no particu- 
lar safety devices. When asked how 
it felt, be replied : " It was like being 
in a barber's chair upside down." 
Experts declare that Pegoud's experi- 
ment will have a great effect in sta- 
bilizing the ordinary aeroplane. Bl§- 
riot pointed out that even birds are 
capsized by squalls and that their 
secret lay in folding their wings and 
in withdrawing most of their surface 
from the action of the air. Two 
weeks before this performance PS- 
goud leaped from a flying aeroplane 
high in the air and descended safely 
hanging to a parachute.

MODERNIZING ONE OF THE OLDEST TRADES OF THE SEA— WHALING 





The industry of 
whaling is at least 
1,000 year old. but 
that the quality of 
picturesqueness has 
not yet departed 
from it is evident 
in the accompany- 
ing snapshots col- 
lected on a recent 
whaling voyage in 
the North Atlantic. 
The upper picture, of 
petrels following the 
ship for shreds of 
whale, probably 
shows as many 
of Mother Carey's 
chickens and as 
wonderful a sunset 
as the pioneers of 
the trade ever be- 
held four centuries 
before Columbus. 
The other photo- 
graphs, descriptive 
rather than pictur- 
esque, show a good 
type of modern 
steam whaler in 
action.

A MEMORIAL TO THOMAS JEFFERSON 



Of the many recent tokens of the popularity of Thomas Jefferson, the most sub-i

A monument recently unveiled in 
Augusta, Ga.. is stimulating interest in 
the literature of the South almost as 
much as the protest against an Amer- 
ican literature textbook in which only 
two of the twenty-eight portraits are 
of Southerners. The Augusta memo- 
rial, given by Mrs. E. W. Cole of Nash- 
ville, bears the names of four poets — 
a few Southern journalists describe them 
as the South's " four greatest " : Sidney 
Lanier, J842-18.°0; Father Abram j. 
Ryan, 1842-1886: James R. Randall, 
1S39-190S; Paul Hayne, 1S30-1S86. 



Dedicated at Leipzig. Germany, on the one-hun- 
dredth anniversary of the " Battle of the Nations." 
It was here that Napoleon's arm? received from the 
allies a blow that gave promise of what was to follow 
a little later at Waterloo. The monument is nearly 
three hundred feet high and is two hundred feet wide 
at the base. It is of reddish porphvrv and cement and 
cost $1,500,000. In our photograph human figures 
are so small that fhey almost escape attention.

tiful and appropriate memorial 
to Grover Cleveland's memory,

character.

A CARLOAD OF GOVERNORS 




If cables and cogs and brakes had failed and the carload 
of passengers in the photograph above had been hurled 
into a wild New Haven smash-up, the fatality list would 
have included eighteen Governors, six wives of Governors, 
a Lieutenant Governor, and a director of the San Francisco 
Exposition. The snapshot was taken when some of the 
representatives attending the annual convention of Gov- 
ernors ascended Mount Manitou, Colorado. The group in- 
cludes :

Fort Worth, Texas, makes the boast — to the 
accompaniment of a broad grin — that she pos- 
sesses the tallest and the shortest policeman in 
the land. George Washington Montgomery, the 
tall one (7 feet 1 inch), is a traffic patrolman. 
The other, Joe Reisacker (5 feet inches), 
drives a patrol wagon and sometimes does a 
turn as roundsman. The two are chums and 
Fort Worth's citizens often see them on the 
streets together. 



AN AGED SUFFRAGIST'S DAY OF VICTORY 

Like another Declaration of Independence, the proclamation which gives official recognition to 
woman suffrage in Oregon is a handwritten document. Mrs. Abigail Scott Dunway had just 
finished inscribing it when the photographer snapped this picture. Mrs. Dunway is seyenty-nine 
and has been active in the fight for suffrage for forty-one years. Governor Oswald West stands 
waiting to sign the proclamation and forward it to be signed and sealed by Oregon's Secretary 
of State. 




A PAGEANT IN HONOR OF UTAH'S PIONEERS 

Salt Lake City's 1913 celebration of the day of the arrival of Utah's pioneers was a pageant so ambitious that it was com- 
pared with the 1897 semicentennial. Our photograph shows the float which represented Brigham Young pointing out the chosen 
valley. In the background is a glimpse of some of the 3,000 children who marched with flags and sang national airs. Replicas 
of the wagons of the original ox train, and 143 men, 3 women, and 2 children costumed as the pioneers who first entered Emi- 
gration Canon, constituted another division of the parade. W. C. A. Smoot, a pioneer, led the procession in a motor car.
